Everyone I had to share this with you. I was doing some looking on wagglepop and seen my auctions were still current. So I thought I would try to log in. You will never guess what I found? Read this BS below that came up when I tried to log in. Now this is some serious BS, tell me I owe them money and I just paid my fee's that got me nothing.

Does anyone know if eCrater is still down? Trying to access this morning and I can't (I'm on cable too) ... I remember reading they were going to be down for a couple days. Any update on that? Thanks.

Unique,
Ecrater was down for a while, but I was working on my store last night with no problem. Can't get into it this morning, though. No clue what's happening.

You're right about dbDiscounts. I also noticed ePets has worked its way up to 2 items. I also noticed ePets has taken the links and references to its B&M store, so maybe Ray is putting the screws to some of these sellers to stop using their stores as redirects to their REAL businesses, which is what ePets was obviously doing with only 1 store item since August and sales info on its REAL business. BTW, I found this 7-month old post from ePets.

I've been on WP for less than a week. Every email question I have asked has been answered quickly and I even understood the answeres. WP seems almost to good to be true. There may be some bugs but I'm happy to be here. I look foward to having a working bulk lister. I have over three thousand items I want to move from the E word.
bolding mine.
As long as I can remember, ePets has only had a single item in its WP store and the eBay store is still going strong. Maybe they're still waiting on the "bulk lister."

Sorry you had to go through that with WP. The censorship is unbelievable.
Quote:It don't surprise me at all. They have monopolized and I am wondering if it will ever help to go anywhere else. But they have stirred up so many feathers that a revolt should begin to grow somewhere. Hopefully one of these sites will grow big enough to crack the whip on Ebay. Did you guys see the today show the other morning talking about all the fraud on Ebay? They were saying it's a 250 billion dollar a year industry just in fraud? Some of the product owners like luois vitton is suing Ebay. Ebay claim they are trying very hard to stop it. Shoot the only thing I've seen they are stopping is us small sellers. With bogus suspensions!
I agree about the small sellers. Ebay is getting to big for its britches, but sellers migrate to so many different sites, it's hard for one place to step up and crack that whip. Ebay is so big even all that fraud can't make a dent in the business.
Oprah needs to do a show on alternatives to Ebay. That might get things going.

Wow, that just makes me sick to my stomach. And the fact that they post publicly in a forum about accounts being due and try to make people think all the sellers that left were closed due to delinquint accounts. Pathetic.
Morning everyone!
Keith! Sorry to hear that WP is giving you crap. Just ignore it, it'll go away!
Welcome back Cash!! We've missed ya
WTF is up with Google Base?? I've been trying since yesterday to log in and keep getting an Oops! error page, lol. Anyone know if FTP uploads are working yet?
Keith... nearly every one of us got that message when we got the boot from WP.  I got kicked off for the same reason you did... I had a logical business related question. :blinkie:
Just ignore it... you paid and you have the email to prove it...  That's just their standard "You don't mesh with our society because you will not allow us to Vulcan Mind Meld you into a clone" response...
Have a nice day, chill out, have some lemonade and find a new venue... you've got a lot of work ahead.  Don't waste one more second being pissed at that message.... besides you can vent here all you want!! ÂÂ
edited: cause I can't spell today
Most of us got kicked off for asking questions -- serious business questions. I don't think there was an X-Popper on this thread who was delinquent on his/her account when the guillotine came down. That delinquency argument is allÂ
to encourage disdain for the "faithless". I merely asked what WP was providing to sellers for a monthly fee that at least a dozen other sites were not given their sellers AT NO CHARGE. That was it -- account closed -- access denied. And the "you don't goosestep to our cult mentality" exit letter consisted of an "exit" invoice. I simply told Karen to shove it and if I received anything further the matter would be refered to my attorney.Â
Sure, there is fraud on eBay. There's fraud everywhere. The only way to avoid it is to make yourself invisible. For that reason, few sellers at WP should have to worry about fraud.
You were right Sherrand...I did enjoy myself!
Good morning all,
DB you are right noone there will ever have to worry about fraud because the only traffic on my site meter in two weeks was the people from WP communty boards. I'm not saying anything bad about the people there they are just being snowballed and believe the BS. I spoke with one of the members through email last night and in our emails I even copy and pastedmy paypal payment with WP and the heffer still didn't out right belive me. She said this just doesn't sound like Karen. Some people never learned. I guess some people like the cult metallity. They do as they told and have no brain for their self.
So I say to all the idiotsÂ
